You’re So Vain

December 11, 2016/

I so enjoy reading what others pack in their bags that I thought I would share my daily Go bag with you on this lovely, snowy evening.I will be the first to say that I hate getting caught touching up my makeup at work – it makes me feel so vain. I mean, I am not doing a lot of touching up nor do I touch up every day but once in a while I need a little freshening up and these are the products that I have on hand just in case. I got this bag free with a BareMinerals purchase almost 3 years ago and it is still going strong.

Lip stuff – never enough lip stuff. I have chapstick in pockets, in drawers and anywhere else I can stick it. Burt’s Bees is my favourite, I also keep a tinted balm and then whatever lip colour I am wearing for the day. I have been wearing Cashmere from Lime Crime almost every day recently. The balm is for if I want to take my lips off but still want some colour:

I keep face wipes in my bag for cleaning up any mascara smudges and the like:

Face powder for any pesky laugh lines or oiliness and stick foundation, I don’t want to carry sponge or brushes and am a big fan of products in sticks:

Eye brightener and and some sort of face colour, I am currently trying to use this one up.I don’t know what it is but I always start to feel and look pale about 2 in the afternoon – it is the office sucking the life out of me I am sure 😀

A face spray but of course, especially in this dry weather:

Plain Vaseline for my fingers, that sounds weird but the tips of my fingers crack in the winter if I am not careful:

And that’s it! I keep bobby pins and hair ties and other odds and ends but that pretty much does it for makeup. It isn’t a lot looking at it now and yet I still feel so vain…

I completely get it! I feel the exact same way. Sometimes I’m mid-blot with a half soaked blotting sheet pressed against my face and then someone walks in the restroom or when I think I’m alone I stand in front of a reflective surface to see my reflection and someone catches me! It’s embarrassing 😫
